Well I took a pic of my first bike. Got it all legal now. Takin the MSF course in May. For now I'm just riding the back roads and to work (which is about 1/2 mile away). So far so good. Its an 85 NH 650. I've only hammered down on it once and that was enough for me to gain respect to how dangerous bikes are. Hopefully I'll never dick around and get myself hurt. I just plan to ride "normal", none of that crazy racing crap for me. Just not how I am!

Never works like that unfortunately, even right now as fast as it seems, in a few months from now you will want more.

Not always. I pushed my 500 to the max before I got bored. Not to mention the carbs needed a good cleaning, and putting on a new can probably could have done me some good.
Just ride to where YOU are happy. If you ride it right you'll ride the rest of your life. Just keep yourself in check and you'll be doing awesome in no time! :D
